The aim of this study was to determine the prognostic value of electrocardiography in hemodynamically stable patients with a diagnosis of acute symptomatic pulmonary embolism (PE). ⋯ In hemodynamically stable patients with acute symptomatic PE, the presence of sinus tachycardia and atrial arrhythmia were independent predictors of a poor prognosis. However, the usefulness of these factors for stratifying risk in PE patients is limited.
